Maple Plain 80: Whitetail Haven

Property Description

This 80 acre tract in Maple Plain offers the kind of access, habitat, and layout deer hunters look for. As you enter the property, you are welcomed by a wide, well-groomed trail system that was maintained with a tractor, making access simple by side-by-side, truck, or equipment. The front portion of the property features subtle changes in topography, pockets of thick cover, bedding areas, deer rubs, and a natural water hole that provides an attractive draw during the summer heat and early season.

The mix of high ground, thicket cover, swamp grass, and water creates excellent edge habitat and predictable deer movement, especially during early-season bow hunting. The swamp grass area helps funnel deer travel and, as conditions dry later in the season, opens up additional access and hunting opportunities. The previous owner recently harvested a mature 10-point buck overlooking this area, and bear sign has also been noted in the surrounding area. There is also a potential food plot location with convenient access from the road, making future habitat improvements simple and practical.

As you work toward the back half of the property, the trail system leads to a stream crossing where the previous owner installed a quality bridge, allowing easy access to the remainder of the acreage. Deer sign continues throughout the back portion, giving the property strong hunting value from front to back. With mature timber, maintained trails, water, bedding cover, and a history of thoughtful land management, this raw 80-acre property is set up well for the next owner to hunt, improve, and enjoy for years to come.
